VERJUS
Verjus, a
popular
ingredient in
French and
European
cooking, is an
acidic juice
made from unripe pressed grapes.
Because both wine and verjus are made
from grapes, it is often seen as a better
substitute for lemon juice or vinegar in
recipes when wine is served with the
meal. The most common uses for verjus
are vinaigrettes, sauces, and marinades.
